This is a card from a set I'm working on just for myself which I called "Uninvited". It's a silver border set where a bunch of people from different research groups gather at the invitation of the queen, only to find themselves trapped inside and needing to solve puzzles and mysteries and get through traps to escape the castle and perhaps net themselves some extra budget. With even a detective planeswalker there was a lot to choose from that would be neat for this challenge, but this one card was something I couldn't resist submitting.  |

emberfire17 I think the wording should be "That creature's controller investigates." |

Sounds darn strong. Maybe it's just me, but I would cost this   even as a sorcery. |

I would change this card to a sorcery and have it be that you remove all your opponents on the field clues (which are emblems and real mechanic in mtg you can look up) to fit with more with your cards title and add a unique mechanic |

 The flavor text is what we call the situation. How do you call it in your country? |

Devastating Recall  Sorcery As an additional cost to cast ~, exile target creature from another player's graveyard and note it. Target creature you control becomes the noted creature. "It was me."Inspired by mysteries where the investigator realizes they were the perpetrator all along, such as {SPOILER}Shutter Island
